ABSTRACT
In the last few years, the significance of antioxidant compounds and their properties has attracted great interest from the scientific community. The role of an antioxidant in managing & regulating oxidative stress and also in the protection of the human body from severe adverse effects due to excess release of free radicles or reactive oxygen species (ROS) is remarkable. From aiding protection & combating severe illnesses such as cancer, neurodegeneration, aging, and diabetes to being a vital part of the treatment of SARs-CoV-19 is of great importance. Therefore, the study of anti-oxidants is of great importance in human sustenance. Additionally, molecular docking techniques and their various mathematical features help in understanding the molecular interactions of anti-oxidants based on their lowest binding energy. The evaluation of the binding score between two constituent molecules will provide insight as to the binding process and also suggest possible novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of diseases. In this chapter, we will discuss the significance of molecular docking techniques in the study of antioxidant compounds.
